About the Business

British Military Fitness was founded in April 1999 by Major Robin Cope, Corporal Will Skinner and Serjeant Harry Sowerby as an alternative form of group fitness training to gyms.

Established in 1999.

Business Name

British Military Fitness - Abington Park

Specialties

The idea was, and still is, to get people of all fitness abilities outdoors training in parks, with motivation provided by military trained instructors. While many people refer to BMF as a boot camp, it was never the intention to make BMF an intimidating, hard out boot camp. Instead the aim was always to give everyone a fun and effective form of training using the highly professional skills learnt in the military.

Business Owner

Harry S. (Business Owner)

Harry Sowerby, who previously founded BMF in 1999 after completing his Army PTI (Physical Training Instructors) course, was tasked with the idea of setting up a company to deliver British Army style fitness classes whilst working on the set of Saving Private Ryan. The model was to offer the training to the general public at local parks with the first class held in Hyde Park in April 1999.
